I would like to use the "data access page" function in MS Access 2000 to develop a web based interface to my database. I would like to put the database and the access page on my web server and then let the users access it via their browser. Can thisbe done? Or must each user have direct access to the database?

Yes, it can be done. With Data Access Page created with Access, u can use IE to acutally browse, update, delete records.

It would be easier if all "client" computer has access 2000, but u can get around that by downloading "OFFICE Componets" from Microsoft website.

Another way to do this, but not using Data Access Page, would be to use ASP (Active Service Page), and it will take some time to learn, but has advantage of anyone having access to ure particular webpage, they can update, delete, insert records to u're database though IE...
